Thermal quenching is described as a decrease in luminescence efficiency with increasing measurement temperature. Luminescence intensity decreases heating rates the presence of thermal quenching. In such case, rate to be used measurements becomes important. Lithium fluoride (LiF) type dosimeters have been widely radiation dosimetry for many years. this study, effect was investigated LiF:Mg,Ti (T...

Seasonal differences have been observed in the ability of desiccated mosses to dissipate absorbed light energy harmlessly into heat. During the dry summer season desiccation-tolerant mosses were more protected against photo-oxidative damage in the dry state than during the more humid winter season. Investigation of the differences revealed that phototolerance could be acquired or lost even unde...

Luminescence thermometry plays significant roles in various fields including industrial production, environmental detection, aerospace, and medicine. However, its accuracy improvement remains highly challenging due to the thermal quenching effect of phosphors. Herein, for first time, a thermal-activated electron compensation Mn2+- Tb3+-codoped Ca2LaTaO6 phosphor is developed multiparametric tem...

Contributions of intermolecular electron energy transfers in the electronic quenching are calculated for molecular collisions N2(A6 u , W 1u)+N2(X6 g , v=0), N2(A6 u )+N2(X 16+ g , v≥0), N2(A 36+ u )+O2(X 36− g , v=0– 2), O2(a1g , b16+ g )+O2(X 36− g , v=0–2). The calculation has allowed one to estimate the product branching ratios. It is shown that there is a dependence of the calculated rate ...

In this paper the effect of quenching and tempering (Q&T) thermal treatment on mechanical properties a novel 6.5% Cr steel for forged components is studied. The main innovation in increased hardenability following higher content with respect to more common 5% allowing lower other chemical elements aimed achieve target properties. Following high intrinsic such based poor prior austenite grai...

TP2 was purified from rat testes employing a gentle method involving differential salt extraction of the sonication-resistant spermatid nuclei. The nucleic acid binding properties of TP2 were studied by fluorescence quenching, thermal denaturation, circular dichroism techniques and compared with those of TP1 (Singh, J., and Rao, M. R. S. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 734-740). The tyrosine fluores...

Energy taken up by light absorption of the leaf pigments is transformed in the process of the photosynthetic quantum conversion into photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence and thermal dissipation. The mostly inverse correlation between chlorophyll fluorescence and photosynthetic activity has been extensively studied in the past, whereas only few studies dealt with the thermal dissipation. In ...

Samples of quartz annealed at high temperatures are known to exhibit thermoluminescence (TL) properties which depend on the rate of cooling of the samples to room temperature. Powder samples of Arkansas quartz were annealed in air at temperatures between 500 and 900 °C and were cooled to room temperature at different cooling rates. The TL of both slowly and fast cooled samples was measured at v...
